Isithombe: I-Homebrewer Yengeza i-Tillicum Hops ku-Kettle yokuphuza utshwala

Lesi sithombe sithwebula isigameko esine-rustic kodwa esisondelene kakhulu somshini wokuphisa i-homebrewer phakathi nenqubo yokuphisa, sigxile ekwengezweni kwamacones e-Tillicum hop asanda kuvunwa eketelani elibilisayo. Umkhathi ufudumele futhi uyathinteka, uhlaka lwezindonga zamapulangwe ezivusa ukunethezeka kanye nobuciko bendawo yokuphisa utshwala yendabuko esikhundleni sokusebenza kahle okuyinyumba kwendawo yokuthengisa utshwala. Amathoni okhuni kanye nokukhanya okucashile kokuhlunga ukukhanya kwemvelo kuyo yonke inkulumo egxilile yomenzi wotshwala kusetha ithoni yobuqiniso nokuzinikela.

Enkabeni yesithombe kukhona umkhiqizi wasekhaya, indoda enentshebe enqunyiwe nezinwele ezimfushane ezinsundu, egqoke ihembe elimnyama le-henley lamalahle. Ukuziphatha kwakhe kuveza ukugxilisa ingqondo nokunakekela, njengokungathi isenzo sokwengeza ama-hops siwumkhuba omkhulu kunomkhuba. Esandleni sakhe sokudla, ubamba ngobunono izigaxa ze-hop ezimbalwa eziluhlaza ngeziqu zazo, ezithathwe phakathi nokunyakaza njengoba zehla zibheke endaweni eshisayo yeketela lokuphuza utshwala. Ama-hop cones acacile futhi aminyene, amacembe awo agqinsile ahlanganiswe ngokuqinile nezinhlaka ezizodlulisela ukubaba, iphunga, nokunambitha kubhiya. Umbala wazo—oluhlaza okotshani okhanyayo, ocishe ucwebezele—uhluke kakhulu kumathoni omhlaba athulisiwe wendawo ezungezile.

Esandleni sakhe sobunxele, umenzi wotshwala uphethe isikhwama sephepha se-kraft esibhalwe ngokugqamile okubhalwe ngombhalo omnyama othi “TILLICUM.” Ukuklama kwesikhwama kuncane, kubonisa kokubili ukuhlanzeka kwesithako kanye nokubaluleka kwayo enkambisweni yokuphuza utshwala. Isikhwama sibonakala sishwabene kancane, okuphakamisa ukuphathwa njalo nokujwayela inqubo, okuqinisa ubuqiniso bomsebenzi wezandla.

Iketela lensimbi engenasici libusa ngaphambili, izinhlangothi zalo zensimbi ezibhulashi zibonisa ukukhanya okufudumele okuvela ekukhanyeni okuzungezile. Umusi okhuphukayo ubalekela iketela, wengeze isici sezinzwa esivusa ukushisa, iphunga, kanye nokwakheka kokuphisa. Indawo enamagwebu yoketshezi ngaphakathi ibonisa ama-ripples acashile kanye namagwebu, athwebula umzuzu oqondile lapho ama-hops azohlangana newort. Ebhentshini lamapulangwe eliseceleni kweketela kunethemometha, ebonisa ukunakwa ngokucophelela kwemininingwane edingekayo kuzo zonke izigaba zokuphisa. Ngemuva komshini wokuphisa utshwala, amabhodlela engilazi angenalutho kanye ne-carboy kuhlezi eshalofini, ukuba khona kwawo kuyisikhumbuzo sezigaba zakamuva zokuvutshelwa, ukubeka isimo, kanye nokufaka amabhodlela okuzolandela lesi sinyathelo esibalulekile.

Isithombe sisonke silinganisa ukugxila komuntu ngemininingwane ethintekayo: ukwakheka okuthambile kokhuni nephepha, ukubenyezela okuqinile kwensimbi engagqwali, kanye nokuvevezela kwemvelo kwamahops amasha. Ayithwebuli nje isenzo sobuchwepheshe sokwenza utshwala kodwa izici ezithinta imizwa nezobuciko zento yokuzilibazisa—ukubekezela, ukuzinikela, kanye nenjabulo yokuguqula izithako ezingavuthiwe zibe into edaliwe eqediwe. Lesi sithombe sincane mayelana nokubhala inqubo yezimboni nokunye okuningi mayelana nokugubha imvelo esondelene, yokusebenzelana kwekhaya. Idlulisa kokubili isiko elingapheli lokuphisa ubhiya kanye nobuntu bomuntu ophisa utshwala obenza owakhe.
